Prof. N. Luccock was down in

brother was the happy groom, in
the presence OF 250 fashionable
guests, says the Meadville Messenger.
The solemn question which plight
ed the pair to each other was SOL
crnnly asked. The hushed assem-
blage heard. "Ifany man knows
ougt by this man and woman
should not become man and wife,
let him now speak or hold his

where the ceremony was being
performed, and going in front of
the minister said: 81 object"

and excited, almost tainted. The

Of Miss Maggie, and when asked to

fitted into removable frames, so as to be
lifted out in q moment, for grinding, at

the work is never retarded. The knives
will be ground by machinery, most eftec-
lively and expeditiously. The can are

an elevator to q central receptacle, located
several feet above the diffusion battery,
and connected Herewith by u revolving

TREArMENT or p1rFUsIoN JUICE.

1t is thought, Judging from experience
elsewhere with Diffusion of cane chips,
that there will be a dilutiOn hy water of
not over % per cent, as, after leaving the
first cell, the water becomes Sweeter and
sweeter until 1t completes the circuit of
the battery of cells or diffusors. A record
will be kept of the density and quantity
of Juice discharged in the measuring tank.
1t will mex flow into one of four carbona.
ton tanks, situated near the battery;
there it will he treated to three. quarters
of its weight in lime, with beet root juice
D times its weight in lime is empl0yed0
and it will then be charged with carbOnic
acid gas until only u faint ~alkalinity is left.
Next the juice will be taken by pumps and
forced through the filter presses. three III
number, on the KrOOg system. The clear
juice from the presses will flow into the
sulphur pans by its own gravity, where it
will be treated with Sulphurous acid until
neutral. This is the system in Germany.
After the juice is sulphured, it will be
pumped into q tank ten feet above the
filter press floor. From this tank it, will
flow into the KrOog twin filter presses, and
all the sediment or precipitate will be sep
arated. The juice will then be bright,
sparkling, of u light straw color, It is
then ready for the vacuum pans, where it
will be treated as ordinary juice.
THE LINZ KILN,
a necessary adjunct to the carbonatation
process, is located about 30 feet west of
the cane carrier. 1t is now complete and
so substantially built it looks as it it could,
last a lifetime. The kiln is 81 feet high,
the inside diameter being Z feet 3 inches
at the bottom and gradually narrows to
8 feet 8 inches at the top. The inside
height, from the bottom of the kiln, is
"a feet 8 inches. The whole is lined with
nine inches of fire brick. 1t is supplied
with three fire boxes and suitable 1ues
for heating the lime stone. In working
the furnace, it will be charged at Che
top at stated intervals, by means of hoist
ing apparatus, with n mixture of lime
stone and coke. AS fast as the lime is
drawn out at the bottom, the supply of
stone and coke is replenished at the top.
The furnace is built from. drawings and
castings of one used by the Maine Beet
Sugar Co. The Government purchased
these drawings last year for the Fort Scott
experiment. 1t has capacity to make car.
bonic acid gas to treat juice from LOO long
tons Of beets in "a hours, or ample for
more than the juice of 800 tons of cane
daily. The gas and products of carlo.
natation will be pumped into q washer,
where the impurities are to be- separated,

are thus rapidly fille,l with chips, alter
nately, it taking about six minutes to
treat zach difusor or cell. AS soon rs the
first diffusor is filled, river water will be
forced among the chips from a tank 30
feet high; when the second is filed, the
fluid from the first will be drawn by a
pipe into it, and the first .reflled with
fresh water, and this operation will be re-.
peated until all twelve of the cells have
had the water and juice of the first cell
passed through them, and the first has been
twelve times reflled with fresh water.
Upon reaching the last cell, the fluid, by
that time rich in Juice, is to be drawn off
into a measuring tank, aud the chips, now
entirely denuded of their sacchariIe mat
ter, will be quickly discharged hy the
whole bottom of the cells being thrown
open.
, 1887-08-27
THE CHIPS

will fall into cIrs, on a railway track of
same guage as the plantation railroad,
and are thence conveyed to the field, where
they will be dumped and spread as ma.
nure, thus restoring the fertility of the
soil, for, being no longer acid, like mill
megasse, it cannot cause any acidity of
the land.
